Re: New G7x II - macros ugh ugh ugh

I posted a similar thread and took the advice of the posters, step down the aperture, zoom in the camera, etc and while yes, I could improve the situation, it still cannot hold a candle to my G15 for G camera macro photography.  So if the poster's main use is macro photography then I would have to disagree with G7X working well for her needs.  The G7X has proven to be a great camera in other regards but not for close ups.  I'm lucky I have both a G15 and a G7X.

Now I can conclude this thread with saying that we have managed to return this camera - happy ending!

So now I will try to research better for better camera for my uses.

Oh, too bad. It is a great camera and would have worked well for your needs with just a slight adjustment in how you use it.
